Course Syllabus

This course aims to give the students a better ability to perform reasoning and considerations in a more engineering like manner when detailing of simple products. This course builds on earlier acquired knowledge within e.g. mechanics, solid mechanics, electrical engineering and product development. One important part of the course is to use standard components and to select material to the parts that bring these together as well as to consider manufacturing issues e.g. when creating drawings and other manufacturing documents. In addition the course deals with how to reason in order to estimate loads for dimensioning of structure elements as well as machine elements. An introduction is also given to topics that deal with innovations such as patens and other propriety rights.
